    Recommend a GPS handheld...

    Hi all, I posted this on another forum so will basically paste it here for hopefully some feedback on acquiring a GPS. One thing though I see the prices on some of these, please keep in mind what I really want is a functional GPS that gets the job done, really not all the extra bells and...

    AT-Pro question: sizing target...

    Hey I know the AT-Pro is new and most who have it just got it but I have a general question. Has anyone experimented to see what method(s) work best to size up a target--like does the pinpoint mode work well for telling the size of something---coin size vs coke can size, etc. ...Or using other...

    Andy's new "The Minelab Explorer & E-Trac Handbook.....

    Just got Andy's new book and took some time scan reading. IMO this is a must have book for those owners of the Explorers or the Etrac. For those looking for info on settings and techniques, this book is chock-full of useful information from Andy as well as info from other Explorer-E-Trac users...

    Took a walk in the Park today....

    and found a 1946D Rosie about 4" deep, IH 1895 about 5", 1939D merc about 8", a 1 cent Mississippi tax token at least 9" and a "play money" dime about 5" deep. The play money has written on it Uncle Sam 1963 with "10" on one side and play money, falsa pecunia with a shield in the middle on the...

    The ML Pro coil

    Anyone here compared the new coil to the stock coil? I am wondering if it does better on the XS and Exp.2.

    The 6" DD coil is hot!

    Hi everyone, this past week I finally got a XT 70 along with the 6" DD coil, went on a clad hunt Saturday just to get used to it a little. Today I decided to try the 6" coil and went to a place by a local river where I had found a few minnies in the past but there is a lot of nails and big iron...

    Old computer ME, will it work with new cameras?

    Ok guys this is a real ignorant question but if I want to get a new compact camera, will I have to upgrade to a new computer first? I haven't checked all brands but Canon seems to only list XP and Vista. I suppose my computer needs the proper driver or whatever you call it to access pics? Yes I...

    The loss of threshold.....

    is something that seems to come up quite often in regards to the Explorer. Now with some detectors one can establish a threshold and only a signal from a target will cause it to null. With the Explorer that is true as well but ground conditions can also cause it to drop out. Some have a false...

    On the subject of the bouncing cursor.....

    I thought I would give a link to Mike Moutray's Explorer screen about the "bouncing". Some were asking about it earlier. Some bouncers are not as extreme as in his examples but it should give an idea of what it may look like. http://66.51.97.78/coinist/xsscreens.html

    Whites 350 blue max problem

    I bought this used coil and it has a intermittant connection, I think it is where the coil wire goes in the coil because I can move the wire there and it will start working properly. There is a plastic nut where the wire goes in the coil, can I loosen it and take it off to see what is going on...

    Has anybody done a straight shaft mod to their Explorer?

    I bet it would make it more balanced, making easier to swing longer. If you have done a mod to this end or know where some instructions are to get it done, let's hear about it. Up to now I have been reluctant to take mine apart but starting to warm up to the idea the older I get....

    Anyone here having a problem accessing Private Messages?

    Maybe it's just a temporary thing, I don't know but I can't get mine to come up, been trying half the day so far.

    Got out with my 3300 today and sometimes it is better to be lucky than good!:detecting:

    Went to a closeby ballpark that I check out after a week or 2 to see if there is any new clad droppings. I ran into a 90 signal on the meter and thought it would be a dime/penny so I stooped down and lightly moved the grass and out came a 10K gold ring! I wondered why it was giving that signal...

    Detecting in nails(long)

    I thought I might do a write-up for hunting in nail trashy areas. First though I want to define a the terms 2-way and 4-way. 2-way refers to when you are just sweeping back and forth over a target and getting a signal both times. 4-way refers to the same except the other 2 are when you turn 90...

    Did anyone ever get the 902 pinpoint project to work.

    I am still thinking about doing it but thought it might be nice to know someone else got it to work.
